Generation Z on Your Campus: Meeting the Needs of the Next Generation - Respond to New Expectations & Characteristics (Webinar)
Wednesday, October 7, 2015
 2-3:30 PM
How can faculty adapt in the classroom?  What innovative strategies can be implemented in advising and instructing? How must your campus adjust communication methods?

You face a very difficult challenge in connecting to this new generation and in identifying new student behaviors you will likely start seeing more often, and will need to address and respond to…quickly.
